I was never a big fan of the Pokemon anime. I watched it a bit, like everyone else, but at that point I was like 16 years old and it was clearly geared toward a younger audience and it grated on me. (I also couldn't stand how they'd bend all the game rules in order to do something ridiculous, like Pikachu one-shotting Onix or whatever.)

Digimon, on the other hand, I was madly in love with... the third season in particular. So good. Dat ending.
